As with kids of her age, the child who is a cabon-copy of her father dozed off in her chair.

When he came back on that Friday, he said his tummy is disturbing him. I touched his tummy, it was stiff and I immediately called our doctor who asked me to get a particular drug for him. He took it and felt good. At about 2.30am, he started complaining and with his situation, we had to rush him to a hospital here in Aguda. Oxygen was put on him. After three hours of those he sat up and asked me to give him water which I did. All of a sudden his eyes changed and his knees buckled, I quickly alerted the doctor who rushed in, we couldn’t carry him back to his bed. Then the doctor asked me to go out. After like two minutes he came out and asked to see any of his brothers. I knew that it had happened.”

She revealed that the corpse of the late thespian has been deposited in the morgue in his hometown close to Awka in Anambra State.
